Abstract

The first silver cluster encapsulating an organic anion—squarate dianion—has been synthesized. Two C4O42− anions arranged in a staggered sandwich type arrangement are confined in the Ag24 cage. The incorporation of squarate anions into the silver alkynyl system leads to the red shift of absorption of the cluster in comparison to silver squarate.
